Bastille Day
It was a great day of activities for Bastille day at Cavendish Court. In the morning we had lots of french toast followed by learning basic words in French and also reciting the numbers 1-20 in French.
In the afternoon we created some passports and boarding passes which residents have kept for future travels at Cavendish court, we finished off the day with painting by Picasso seeing if we can follow his footsteps with our unique designs.

To celebrate our 'Around the World' theme, we made our own Dominican Republic carnival masks to wear for our upcoming party.
